Creating a “Funks Grove Corps of Discovery”

The dynamic, changing landscape of Funks Grove and its adjacent habitats provides a perfect opportunity for interested, committed citizens to participate in the documentation of the biological and habitat diversity of this historic landscape.

Whereas Lewis and Clark traveled thousands of miles to document the diverse American West, today it is the dynamic landscape of Funks Grove that will move, evolve, and diversify and the individuals who will stay put.

To aesthetically document this unique, diverse landscape, we will develop a “Funks Grove Corps of Discovery,” consisting of individuals trained in the skills of nature photography, descriptive writing, and sketch journaling, who can then create a total picture of the grove, both today and into the future.
